Hi everybody,

After 10 years of having only one side on my VCS3, I have found and 
replaced the amplifier chip. The channel now works but I am worried by 
one thing still. Should the power resistors at the top of that board be 
getting so hot that they burn my hand when touched? The board shows 
burning around the solder points. What would cause that? Is it normal? I 
just don't want to be right back to a blown chip next week.

Mark
